While I'm here at the Marriott hotel in TJ waiting for my sleeve tomorrow with dr Garcia, I am thinking about how many times i tried? How many years I wasted in frustration, pain and shame? So I came up with my "list" of diets that turned out as failure.

1- Brazilian pills - totally forbidden but I managed to get them

2- weight watchers

3- Quick Weight Loss centers

4- HCG shots in my belly

5- nutrasystem

6- dunkan diet

7- soup diet

8- Hollywood diet

I'm sure I'm forgetting something but you can have an idea.

Now tell me yours : )

1.phen phen

2. LA weight loss

3.weight watchers

4. Nutrasystem

5. Jenny Craig

6. Atkins

7. Cabbage soup diet

Every pill imaginable

Phentramine 8 months, Nutrasystem 2 times, Jenny Craig 3 times, Ace, soup and water diet, and Alli!

pretty much all of the above, other than brazilian pills.

cabbage soup diet

Dolly Parton Diet

Weight Watchers

Richard Simmons

Atkins 3 times

Fasting for days on end

South Beach

etc etc etc

Please add Optifast and Baylorfast. Don't forget the Zone. Oh and the Diet Center.....

HCG

Atkins

Weight Watchers (multiple times)

The Zone

Low Fat

Hired a personal trainer

Some expensive cleanse (basically gross shakes and vegetables)

For a while, in college, I took anything that made my appetite go away...basically speed

After what I did to myself to, unsuccessfully, lose weight....removing part if my stomach is the most sensible

It's easier to list what I haven't tried..........weight loss surgery It's been 16 years and thousands of dollars (I'm sure I could have paid for a double digit number of surgeries in Mexico) that have led me to this point. August 4 is my new beginning.

Starting back in the early 70's....

liquid Protein diet

80's: Hollywood diet

90's: Jenny Craig

2000's: Weight Watchers & Hydroxicut and later other ephedra based diet pills. When ephedra was outlawed in the US, I resorted to sudafed (did not really work)

I'm really good at losing weight. It's keeping it off.

I have tried them all.

I even did the bariatric diet and lost 129pd and gained it all back in one year.

I am so grateful for my Dr. and the sleeve.

Good luck tomorrow.

I had my surgery on April 15th 2014.

Hey does anyone know where I can get me some Brazilian diet pills?

I've pretty much tried everything else.

I've tried all the diets mentioned and then I counted all my diet and diet cookbooks WELL over 300 that alone could have paid for a sleeve????

You can't anymore because now it's forbidden there too. I did get them when was forbidden here but not in brazil.

What are Brazilian diet pills?
